A landscape photograph shows a calm body of water surrounded by lush, green tropical vegetation under a blue sky with scattered white clouds. On the left side, an island is covered in dense shrubs and ferns. Two exceptionally tall palm trees stand prominently in the center, rising high above the surrounding treetops. To the right, a dark sculpture sits on a stone pedestal near the water's edge, alongside more thick greenery. The foreground includes part of a light-colored paved area next to the reflective surface of the water.

Dedicated in April 1981, the 1.3 acre garden was built through the generosity of Mrs. Loraine Miller Collins in memory of her late husband, Earl Burns Miller. Following three years of planning, in cooperation with California State University Long Beach, landscape architect Edward R. Lovell was chosen to oversee its creation. The resulting garden reflects the university’s continued interest in international education, student and community engagement, as well as the Miller’s interests in nature and wellness.  The university is delighted to share this educational, cultural, and aesthetic resource with you. – CSULB

A decorative show garden lounge area is situated inside a shopping mall, framed by dark red leaves. A wooden plank path leads through green plants and flowers toward a circular seating area made of gray stone and wooden seats. In the center of the seating is a yellow fire pit with logs, positioned in front of a large black screen and a patterned diamond tile. A blue lion head statue with a gold crown sits beside the path.
